Man charged with hit-run that injured cyclist

A West Dundee man was charged today with leaving the scene of an accident that injured a woman riding a bicycle, police said.

Jose Tabon, 26, of the 500 block of Lincoln Avenue was arrested at work in a Hoffman Estates restaurant, said West Dundee Police Chief Dave Sawyer.

The victim, a 42-year-old Carpentersville woman, was riding on the shoulder of Huntley Road near Tartans Drive in West Dundee about 3:30 p.m. Wednesday when she was struck. She was in intensive care Thursday at Sherman Hospital in Elgin, but her injuries were not considered life-threatening, police said.

Sawyer said witnesses gave police the license plate number of the car that hit the woman and a description of the car and the driver. Tabon also was charged with driving with a suspended or revoked driver's license, operating an uninsured vehicle and obstructing justice, Sawyer said.
